A Sinhala-language book on the mind, written by Athula Manchanayake and published in Colombo by M. D. Gunasena. The entire text is in Sinhala, so a reader will need the language to use it.
Its starting point is a Buddhist one: the single force behind a being's wandering through samsara, which has no discernible end, is the mind — described in Buddhist teaching as consciousness, viññāṇa. From there the book sets out how the study of the supra-mental, the field of enquiry that reaches beyond ordinary mental activity, can be applied to understanding that mind.
It will suit readers already comfortable with Buddhist vocabulary in Sinhala who are interested in where doctrinal accounts of consciousness meet modern approaches to studying the mind. M. D. Gunasena is a long-established Colombo publisher issuing books in Sinhala and English.
